Raspberry Pi Pico 2 WH - Wireless with Headers

The Raspberry Pi Pico 2 is a faster, more capable microcontroller board powered by the RP2350 chip. Featuring dual-core performance, expanded memory and built-in USB support, it’s the perfect choice for beginners, makers and classroom projects.

The Raspberry Pi Pico W, also with pre-soldered headers, allows users to easily add wireless connectivity to builds and IoT projects. The board has been pre-fitted with a pre-soldered 40-way header connector, for greater ease of use in hobbyist and industrial applications.

At the heart of this microcontroller is RP2040, a Raspberry Pi-designed chip. The Raspberry Pi Pico, it's; small, fast, highly affordable, and incredibly versatile. Brought to you by the same team that delivered the Raspberry Pi computer. The powerful, Pi-designed, RP2040 Dual ARM Cortex-M0+ @ 133MHz chip features 256KB internal RAM. This is paired with 2MB of onboard QSPI Flash memory for code and data storage. The board is fully loaded with the hardware and flexible I/O options that make it perfect for beginners and experts alike.

Unlike the Raspberry Pi computers, like the Raspberry Pi 4, the pico has no operating system. Instead, the board is programmed to do only the tasks that are required of it in the project it will be used for. It can be programmed with the C/C++ SDK or with MicroPython. Code on your Desktop Computer/Pi and then transfer via USB to the Pico.

The Raspberry Pi Pico W, also with pre-soldered headers, allows users to easily add wireless connectivity to projects. This makes it perfect for wirelessly controlled builds and IoT projects.

On-board single-band 2.4GHz wireless interfaces (802.11n) via Infineon CYW43439 wireless chip. With WPA3 & soft access point supporting up to 4 clients.

This 90RPM in-line geared TT hobby motor is a great cost-effective solution for adding some movement to your buggy/robot builds. It can be used with our matching wheels and with our motor driver boards, such as our Motor Driver Board for Raspberry Pi Pico and the Compact Motor Driver Board for the BBC micro:bit, to name just two. Note: when using a microcontroller, do not drive these motors directly with the microcontroller, always use them in conjunction with a motor driver board.

Despite their low price point, these brightly coloured 120:1 motors are quite durable and are likely to last through multiple builds with ease.

Although there is a gearbox between the motor and the shaft, there are no rotary encoders. When connected to an appropriate motor driver, like the two listed above, you get forwards/backwards/stop. Simple yet effective. With 2 motors connected to a motor driver, you can also have directional control by turning off one motor and not the other. As is sometimes the case with servos and motors, there can be some small RPM differences between motors which can be overcome when coding, a little trial end error and the odd pause is usually all it takes.

These hobby motors have an operating voltage of between 3V and 6V, with 4.5V being nominal. This makes them suitable for powering with batteries. At 4.5V, they have a speed of 90RPM no-load and 72RPM at load. Torque at the nominal 4.5V is 0.3Kg/cm and they have a stall torque rating of 1.4Kg/cm. See Datasheet for more information.

Note:When using a microcontroller, do not attempt to drive these motors directly with the microcontroller, always use them in conjunction with a motor driver board.
